Use these movements to help activate your muscles before beginning your workout. After the first exercise go straight into the second exercise with minimal rest. Then rest once both exercises are complete and repeat for the sets given.

Complete reps on both sides 

Form Tips:
• elbows below shoulders
• knees below hips 
• lock in abs and hips 
• drive your heel toward the ceiling (imagine you’re pushing the ceiling away from you) 
• keep tension in your glutes the entire time 

❌ don’t arch your spine as you kick back 
❌ don’t move your hips as you kick back 

✅ do focus on driving through your glutes 
✅ do squeeze your glutes at the top and lower with control

Form tips: 
- heels and toes planted hip width apart 
- ribs locked down and core is tight 
- drive up pushing through your heels 
- keep your knees in line with your toes 
- squeeze your glutes at the top and return slowly keeping the tension in your glutes the entire time 

*if you feel it too much in your quads your feet might be too close to you
*if you feel it too much in your hamstrings your feet might be too far away from you 

❌ don’t arch your back as you drive up 
❌ don’t let your knees cave in at the top 

✅ do keep your ribs locked down to avoid placing the load on your spine

Beginner: dumbbell or bodyweight 

Form tips: 
• shoulder blades on bench/box
• chin tucked 
• feet hip width apart with toes pointed forward, heels planted and toes gripping the ground 
• feet should be right below knees at the top of the thrust (if they are too far forward you’ll feel it more in your hamstrings, if they are too far back you will feel it more in your quads & knees)
• keep knees in line with toes as you drive up and lower 
• abs locked in and ribs locked down to protect your spine 
• squeeze your glutes at the top and lower with control 

❌ don’t arch your back at the top 
❌ don’t let your knees cave in

• Keep your feet planted, toes gripping the floor and driving through your heels 

❌ don’t round or arch your back 
❌ don’t keep lowering any further once your hips stop moving back or your back will take on the load 

✅ do think about using your glutes & hamstrings  
✅ do slow down so you don’t use your back to lift the weight

After the first exercise go straight into the second exercise with minimal rest. Then rest once both exercises are complete and repeat for the sets given.

My biggest take away after my first flourish fit workout. I didn’t feel alone in my workout! I didn’t realize how just having a workout guide could help so much. I enjoy the time to myself as a busy mom and wife but this was so SO nice!
